Shadowed face shielded eyes
Burning consumes a troubled mind
Caves collapse, cold, dark

lost

I sprinted, desperation
a soft tiptoe
across the galaxy
To reach your mind

I love you,
Will you say it too?
Leave me alone.

Leave.

Me.

Alone.

To sleep, the impossible task

Aimless, spinning into darkness
The sun disappears
The jarring drop
as a seesaw strikes the ground

Leave me alone.

Tonight
If I should not return
To wake with the light
If you do not come back to me,
What would our last memory be?
